Mountaineer Premier 4.6L V8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 89,600 miles

This is due to a poor 3 valve design. The carbon builds up on the extended tube of the spark plug that extends into the intake manifold, sticks, and breaks off in the intake manifold. Ford has a class action suit regarding this problem.
